There are a number of reasons why fuel prices are rising but more than anything, you can blame this mess (and most of the others over the last couple decades) on Wall Street.

Wall street doesn't set the price for a barrel of oil.
 Just remember what GOP stands for (gouging oil prices)  ;D

Nope, here in Vero I saw it at $3.99 2 days ago. But ofcourse, 3 miles away on the other side of town it's only $3.69. And 1 town north of us it's in the $3.50's.

Oh, and when I drove to Kuntucky two weekends ago, every state along the way was $3.39 and below. But as soon as you cross the Florida border the prices rose $.30.

I believe the cheapest in South Florida right now is $3.79. I think I am going to go buy a
2.9L Canyon. Thing will pay for itself in a year.

Pretty hard to work out of a bike without a really stupid looking trailer, and rainy season is almost here. I like to go out after 3:00PM sometimes in the summer. ;)

didn't even look because I only put premium in the truck due to the programmer, but usually about $.20 lower than the premium.

I might have the opportunity today to stop by and I'll snap a pic.

You're joking, right?  Where do you think all the oil futures are traded?  In the commodities markets around the world, with the New York Mercantile Exchange (located just blocks from Wall Street, adjacent to the site of the WTC) being the largest.  Speculators are the single largest reason oil futures continue to climb.  It has absolutely nothing to do with the GOP.

The price of oil is basically set by Opec which sets the cartel's agenda. The largest pruducer of oil with in opec is Saudi Arabia. So if you trust the Saudies setting the cartels agenda of oil then you would fit right in with Cheney and Bush.
Maybe if they set the agenda a little higher oil prices will fall. Kinda like Enron all over again. ;)

It is crystal clear Diggin, the GOP has done nothing to curb China's appetite for oil so the blame falls squarely on them.  ;)

Again, you are wrong.  OPEC only controls production quotas.  In some respects, in a normal market, that has an effect on prices (supply and demand law at work) but OPEC absolutely does not set the price of oil; the commodities market does that, as was pointed out before.  Furthermore, this is hardly a 'normal' market.  Speculation is driving the market and the primary focus is fear; oil prices jump 10% everytime somebody farts in an oil producing country.  And what does Enron have to do with the price of oil?  Their primary business was buying and selling excess power capacity of electric grids among the various utilities around the country.  They were involved in the distribution of natural gas and owned some utilities as well, so get your story straight.

They manipulate there books just to drive of the price of oil, in comparasion of an Enron type business technique. That was my comparasion!

What in the hell are you talking about?  What books are being manipulated by OPEC?  They don't report to anybody and nobody invests in them!  They are a cartel; a group of commodity suppliers that set production levels.  Through collusion, they remove competition amongst themselves and alter normal market patterns, maximizing their own profits.  You need to just stop before you convince the world you don't have a clue.  I think I need to go back to my old sig.

 Can a food processor really make fuel from banana peels and garbage? Only if I'm trying to get to the future right?
   I was in the hospital for a week and came out and saw the gas prices. I was like,"Holy Shizzit!!" It was $3.65 when I went in, and it's now $3.74.
   I think I'm gonna start riding in a Limo, the cost per week is almost the same!!
